First installment of photography tips and tricks
On the night of August 31, a moonless night, guided by Professor Manuel and Paul, we walked under the stars through the Indio Canyon. In the well-known geological formation that the caprice of waters, wind and time, carved as the faces of two Indians, we proposed to the hikers to paint their faces and stone faces with the light of their lanterns. It is an ancient technique on the rise with digital photography, it is called light painting, which in Greek, curiously, is called FotoGrafía, that is, painting with light.
The important thing for this technique is to keep the camera well supported on a tripod. In the absence of one, they are good stones. The exposure time was 2.5 seconds, the f5 aperture is a sensitivity of 800 ISO. All quite to OjíMetro 👀. Timely measuring the illumination of each flashlight and drawing the conclusions would have been very tedious for the models.
The two and a half seconds of exposure were divided into half a second to illuminate the faces, then the model-luminaires had to all turn and illuminate the rocks. The stopwatch was also intuitive.
The photograph you see is the third attempt.
It helps for these types of photographs to be able to shoot RAW files due to their wide dynamic range.
Any questions, you can leave it in the comments. I will answer you as soon as possible.
